Restorative Dentistry

Restorative dentistry is the branch that focuses on diagnosing, treating, and maintaining the oral function, comfort, appearance, and patient health. It includes procedures such as fillings, crowns, bridges, dentures, and dental implants to repair or replace teeth that have been damaged or lost.

Restorative dentistry also includes endodontic treatment (root canal treatment) and periodontal therapy (treatment of gum disease) to help maintain the health of the supporting tissues of the teeth. The goal of restorative dentistry is to restore the function, appearance, and health of the patient’s teeth and gums and to prevent future problems from arising.
It is usually necessary when a tooth is severely decayed, broken, or damaged, and it can be done to improve the function, appearance, and overall health of the patient’s teeth and gums.
